Military leaders are turning a blind eye to problem gambling among young soldiers, airmen, and others. Arguments about legislating morality are both tired and specious. For the sake of so called morale, welfare, and recreation, military leaders are apparently willing to accept a certain percentage of "casualties" among their troops to the ravages of gambling addiction. Sadly, the enemy is within. Accolades to Representive Lincoln Davis and anyone with the courage to co-sponsor his legislation.
